Cloud Phones – Voice over Internet Protocol (VOIP)

The VOIP solution is commonly used system in small, medium and large businesses. VOIP operates on the Hosted PABX technology. The Hosted PABX technology removes the need for you to have a big box sitting on your office wall which hosts the private telephone network used by your office. Instead, it sits in the cloud.

The basis for VOIP’s popularity is that:

managing the system is easier. As the system sits in the cloud rather than in your office, we can readily access it through the web interface for configuration purposes.

is packed with great features. The system can be used to hold music, queues, menu systems, parking lots and can even be configured to allow staff working remotely to still make and take calls.

it is cheap to operate lowering your costs. Using this system typically reduces the cost by 50% compared to regular phone systems. Further, the cost of calls are cheaper across the board.

it is versatile enough to grow with your business. You can start off with 1 phone on the system and add more phones as your business grows and your hire more staff. There is no need to reconfigure the whole system; just a simple plug and play.

call quality is maintained. Even though the system is hosted in the cloud your system remains as reliable and the sound as good as the conventional phone service.

previous phone numbers can be kept. You may be using a phone number for many years so it is important for your business that you can continue to use this.
